Silent Debate (10 Activities)

For this task, you’re going to have an argument with a classmate — but there’s a twist: you won’t be speaking at all. Instead, you will argue on paper.

Yes!! I have been saying this for years! This applies to ELs especially. The idea that ELs can't read anything but one-pagers and short stories is appalling.

"One thing is clear, reading researchers say: Novels, and longer works in general, are powerful teaching tools for children in upper elementary grades and beyond." https://t.co/qDv5Y9bnOi

[Teacher2Teacher @teacher2teacher]

🔎 This approach doesn't just ask Ss to pay close attention to the reading – it also invites them to notice their own thoughts and observations!

Excellent.

Print it and place it on every teacher's desk in America.

[SoL in the Wild @SoLInTheWild]

🔥Hot take?🚨The best lessons do not teach students any new information.‼️

Today’s lesson:

1️⃣ Flashcard spaced practice
2️⃣ Sketch and Tell retrieval practice
3️⃣ Concept revision: how/why elaboration
4️⃣ Metacognition: Prioritize parts of concept still needing more revision time

The impact of a teacher can last a lifetime.

Thank you for implementing ! I wish I could be a fly on the wall in your classroom! @Seidlitz_Ed

@NataliaESL I’m trying this activity with my 1st graders tomorrow, and it aligns perfectly with our lesson objective of connecting 2 short sentences into 1 longer sentence in @Amplify Language Studio.

So true!!

Rocked the opening of Gatsby this week with my juniors. Unpacked language and characterization. It’s been a pretty successful launch of Odell Literacy . Language sort was my creation to support ELL familiarity with language in the text!

📚 Loving our T&L Book Club!
Staff get these one-pagers summarising the chapters we’ve explored from @KateJones_teach and @Doug_Lemov — perfect for quick reflection and classroom inspiration. #CPD #TeachingAndLearning

An awesome resource that I love sharing everywhere:
"...almost all information stored in short-term memory that is not rehearsed is lost within 18 to 30 seconds!" #retrieval

Thank you @KateJones_teach for all of your amazing resources!
